Types of network cameras
A complete portfolio for any need
The Axis product range offers the world’s largest selection of network cameras. The cameras
are divided into four categories – Fixed network cameras, Fixed dome network cameras, PTZ
network cameras, and PTZ dome network cameras – providing high-quality video solutions for
any professional indoor or outdoor video surveillance application.
5
Fixed network cameras
A fixed network camera meets a variety of application
needs, and its traditional camera design adds a deterring effect. The viewing direction is set once the
camera is mounted. There are several models with a
varifocal lens and/or exchangeable lenses for increased
flexibility. Housings are available for mounting the
camera outdoors or in harsh environments.
Fixed dome network cameras
A fixed dome network camera is a compact camera soluti on with a dome c asing . It s main be nef it l ies in it s discr eet ,
non-obtrusive design, as well as in the fact that it is
difficult to see in which direction the camera is pointing.
The camera’s dome casing design offers efficient protection against redirection and defocusing.
PTZ network cameras
A PTZ network camera offers network video functionality combined with pan/tilt/zoom capability. The camera’s movement is easily controlled via a computer
connected to the network. Depending on the application, the most suitable choice may be a PTZ network
camera where both movement and viewing direction
are visible, a more discreet model where all moving
parts are inside the casing, or a model with no moving
parts.
PTZ dome network cameras
A PTZ dome network camera provides full flexibility by
offering 360-degree pan, 180-degree tilt, extensive
zooming capabilities and advanced mechanical design
for continuous camera movement. PTZ domes are ideal
for live monitoring, where the user needs to actively
follow a person or object. They can also be operated in
guard tour mode, where the camera automatically
moves between preset positions.
